DETAILED DESCRIPTION

An enterprise computing environment may involve a number of computer systems. A user of a computer system in the enterprise computing environment can perform searches via internet and/or intranet applications, such as a web search engine. For example, the user may experience a problem with a computer system and attempt to resolve the problem by searching for potential solutions. Each time the user searches for a potential solution, the user may receive and navigate through a plurality of search results. Each time the user performs a search, search session information may be recorded. The search session information may be stored in the enterprise computing environment, such that users connected to the enterprise computing environment can receive search session information for similar searches.

The user connected to the enterprise computing environment may take a long time to navigate the search results and identify a potential solution that can be used to assist the user in resolving their problem. The user may also navigate the search results and determine that the received search results do not provide sufficient detail to assist the user in resolving their problem. It may be advantageous to provide the user with additional information when search results are returned to the user, such that the user can receive search session information for similar searches. Accordingly, the user can use the received search session information to contact other users connected to the enterprise computing environment that performed similar searches, as well as access internet and/or intranet content that the other users accessed during their respective search session.

Embodiments of the present invention provide methods, systems, and computer program products for determining whether users connected to an enterprise computing environment perform similar searches. Embodiments of the present invention can modify a search response returned to a user, if it is determined that other users connected to the enterprise computing environment performed a similar search, such that the search response returned to the user includes search session information for the other users regarding the similar search.

FIG. 1 is a functional block diagram of enterprise computing environment 100, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. Enterprise computing environment 100 includes gateway computer system 110, one or more client computer systems 130, and one or more web services 140 connected via network 120.

Network 120 can be, for example, a local area network (LAN), a wide area network (WAN) such as the Internet, or a combination of the two, and include wired, wireless, or fiber optic connections. In general, network 120 can be any combination of connections and protocols that will support communications between gateway computer system 110, one or more client computer systems 130, and one or more web services 140, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.

Client computer systems 130 and gateway computer system 110 can be desktop computers, laptop computers, specialized computer servers, or any other computer systems known in the art. In certain embodiments, client computer systems 130 and gateway computer system 110 represent computer systems utilizing clustered computers and components to act as a single pool of seamless resources when accessed through network 120. In certain embodiments, client computer systems 130 and gateway computer system 110 represent virtual machines. In general, client computer systems 130 and gateway computer system 110 are representative of any electronic devices, or combination of electronic devices, capable of executing machine-readable program instructions, as described in greater detail with regard to FIG. 3. In other embodiments, client computer systems 130 and gateway computer system 110 may be implemented in a cloud computing environment, as described in greater detail with regard to FIGS. 4 and 5.

Each one of client computer systems 130 represents a platform configured to exchange requests and responses in a protocol (e.g., Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP) requests and HTTP responses). For example, each one of client computer systems 130 can be an HTTP client, such that each of client computer systems 130 can transmit an HTTP request and receive an HTTP response to exchange data (e.g., HTML files, image files, query results, etc.).

Each user of client computer systems 130 is connected to enterprise computing environment 100 and can perform a search using internet and/or intranet applications of client computer systems 130. In one embodiment, a first user and a second user connected to enterprise computing environment 100 may perform a first and second search, respectively. It may be that the first and second search are similar searches, responsive to determining that the content of the search request for the first and second search are similar (e.g., similar keywords in the search request). A “similar search,” as used herein, refers to two or more searches performed by at least one user connected to enterprise computing environment 100, where search content for each of the two searches (e.g., keywords) represent the same subject matter. In one embodiment, two search requests can be determined to be similar searches by comparing keywords of the two search requests.

Each one of web services 140 represents a platform configured to exchange protocol requests and responses (e.g., HTTP requests and HTTP responses). For example, each one of web services 140 can be an HTTP server, such that data can be exchanged with enterprise computing environment 100. Web services 140 can respond to an HTTP request (e.g., a protocol request originating from client computer system 130) by providing an HTTP response. For example, an HTTP response can include: status information, server information, entity metadata information, and body content.

Gateway computer system 110 represents a platform configured to exchange protocol requests and responses. For example, gateway computer system 110 can be a proxy server that retrieves protocol requests from client computer systems 130, transmits retrieved protocol requests to web services 140, and retrieves protocol responses from web services 140. In this embodiment, gateway computer system 110 includes application program 112 that, stores in storage 114 information regarding searches performed by each user connected to enterprise computing environment 100, determines whether similar searches are performed by users connected to enterprise computing environment 100, and modifies a protocol response originating from web services 140 to include additional information, as described in greater detail below.

Application program 112 represents program functionality for storing search session information in storage 114 for each user connected to enterprise computing environment 100. A “search session,” as used herein, refers to a time period for which a user connected to enterprise computing environment 100 performs one or more related searches. In one embodiment, application program 112 can determine that a search session for a user connected to enterprise computing environment 100 is complete, if the user is idle for longer than a specified threshold, or performs subsequent searches that are not similar from previously performed searches in the previous search session. For example, a first search session and a second search session for a first user connected to enterprise computing environment 100 may involve searches related to a malfunctioning display device and a malfunctioning keyboard, respectively. Search session information for each search session can include: content of search requests for each respective search session (e.g., keywords in a search request), contact information of a user conducting each respective search session (e.g., the first user connected to enterprise computing environment 100), and a navigational history for each respective search session (e.g., one or more accessed web pages). Accordingly, once a search session for a user connected to enterprise computing environment 100 is complete, application program 112 stores the user's search session information for subsequent use, as described in greater detail below.

Application program 112 also represents program functionality for identifying content of search requests and determining whether a similar search was previously performed by users connected to enterprise computing environment 100. In one embodiment, application program 112 can parse a search request to obtain keywords (i.e., content) of the search request. Application program 112 can access search session information stored in storage 114 to determine whether to classify searches performed by users connected to enterprise computing environment 100 as similar searches.

For example, a search performed by a user connected to enterprise computing environment 100 may involve an error code received by the user while operating a word processing application on one of client computer systems 130. Application program 112 identify keywords in a search request of the search (e.g., “received,” “Error Code: 1452B12,” “word processing application”). Application program 112 can subsequently access search session information in storage 114 to determine whether keywords from previous search sessions represent the same subject matter as the identified keywords from the search performed by the user.

Application program 112 also represents program functionality for modifying protocol responses that are retrieved from web services 140. Application program 112 can receive a protocol response from web services 140 for a search request performed by a user of a first of client computer systems 130 connected to enterprise computing environment 100, and modifies the received protocol before sending the modified protocol to the first of client computer systems 130, responsive to determining that a similar search was previously performed by users connected to enterprise computing environment 100. Application program 112 can modify a received protocol response by including a portion of information from the similar search. For example, application program 112 can include Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) in the body content of a received protocol response (e.g., HTTP response) to include contact information of another user that performed a similar search and/or one or more webpages that the other user referenced during their respective search session.

Storage 114 represents a storage repository that contains search session information for each user connected to enterprise computing environment 100. Storage 114 can include a data table for each search session of a user connected to enterprise computing environment 100, wherein the table can contain content for a user's search session (e.g., keywords of a search request), a user's contact information, and a navigational history for a user's search session. For example, stored search session information for a first search session of a user connected to enterprise computing environment 100 can include: keywords of search requests from searches performed during the first search session (e.g., “spacebar”, “not working, “not responding,” “model number: 12345,” “frozen,” etc.), a name of the user, an e-mail address of the user, etc., and the webpages (e.g., blogs and forums) visited by the user during the first search session.

In one embodiment, an intranet network (e.g., a network 120) is provided to enable internal enterprise network connectivity between client computer systems 130 and gateway computer system 110. Furthermore, an internet network (e.g., another network 120) can be provided to enable exchange of protocol requests and responses with web services 140.

FIG. 2 is a flowchart illustrating operational steps for modifying a protocol response, in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, application program 112 receives a search request submitted by a user connected to enterprise computing environment 100 (step 202). Application program 112 identifies the content of the received search request (e.g., keywords of the search request) (step 204). Application program 112 accesses search session information stored in storage 114 (step 206). Application program 112 determines whether a similar search was previously performed by users connected to enterprise computing environment 100 (decision 208). If, application program 112 determines that a similar search was previously performed (“yes” branch, decision 208), then application program 112 modifies a protocol response that is received from web services 140 (step 210). In one embodiment, after application program 112 determines that a similar search was previously performed (“yes” branch, decision 208), then application program 112 can store search session information in storage 114 (step 212). If, application program 112 determines no similar search was previously performed by users connected to enterprise computing environment 100 (“no” branch, decision 208), then application program 112 stores search session information for the received search request in storage 114 (step 212). Search session information is stored, such that the search session information can be referenced to determine whether a future search request is similar to search requests previously performed by users connected to enterprise computing environment 100.

It is understood in advance that although this disclosure includes a detailed description on cloud computing, implementation of the teachings recited herein are not limited to a cloud computing environment. Rather, embodiments of the present invention are capable of being implemented in conjunction with any other type of computing environment now known or later developed.

Cloud computing is a model of service delivery for enabling convenient, on-demand network access to a shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g. networks, network bandwidth, servers, processing, memory, storage, applications, virtual machines, and services) that can be rapidly provisioned and released with minimal management effort or interaction with a provider of the service. This cloud model may include at least five characteristics, at least three service models, and at least four deployment models.

Characteristics are as follows:

On-demand self-service: a cloud consumer can unilaterally provision computing capabilities, such as server time and network storage, as needed automatically without requiring human interaction with the service's provider.

Broad network access: capabilities are available over a network and accessed through standard mechanisms that promote use by heterogeneous thin or thick client platforms (e.g., mobile phones, laptops, and PDAs).

Resource pooling: the provider's computing resources are pooled to serve multiple consumers using a multi-tenant model, with different physical and virtual resources dynamically assigned and reassigned according to demand. There is a sense of location independence in that the consumer generally has no control or knowledge over the exact location of the provided resources but may be able to specify location at a higher level of abstraction (e.g., country, state, or datacenter).

Rapid elasticity: capabilities can be rapidly and elastically provisioned, in some cases automatically, to quickly scale out and rapidly released to quickly scale in. To the consumer, the capabilities available for provisioning often appear to be unlimited and can be purchased in any quantity at any time.

Measured service: cloud systems automatically control and optimize resource use by leveraging a metering capability at some level of abstraction appropriate to the type of service (e.g., storage, processing, bandwidth, and active user accounts). Resource usage can be monitored, controlled, and reported providing transparency for both the provider and consumer of the utilized service.

Service Models are as follows:

Software as a Service (SaaS): the capability provided to the consumer is to use the provider's applications running on a cloud infrastructure. The applications are accessible from various client devices through a thin client interface such as a web browser (e.g., web-based e-mail). The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure including network, servers, operating systems, storage, or even individual application capabilities, with the possible exception of limited user-specific application configuration settings.

Platform as a Service (PaaS): the capability provided to the consumer is to deploy onto the cloud infrastructure consumer-created or acquired applications created using programming languages and tools supported by the provider. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure including networks, servers, operating systems, or storage, but has control over the deployed applications and possibly application hosting environment configurations.

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS): the capability provided to the consumer is to provision processing, storage, networks, and other fundamental computing resources where the consumer is able to deploy and run arbitrary software, which can include operating systems and applications. The consumer does not manage or control the underlying cloud infrastructure but has control over operating systems, storage, deployed applications, and possibly limited control of select networking components (e.g., host firewalls).

Deployment Models are as follows:

Private cloud: the cloud infrastructure is operated solely for an organization. It may be managed by the organization or a third party and may exist on-premises or off-premises.

Community cloud: the cloud infrastructure is shared by several organizations and supports a specific community that has shared concerns (e.g., mission, security requirements, policy, and compliance considerations). It may be managed by the organizations or a third party and may exist on-premises or off-premises.

Public cloud: the cloud infrastructure is made available to the general public or a large industry group and is owned by an organization selling cloud services.

Hybrid cloud: the cloud infrastructure is a composition of two or more clouds (private, community, or public) that remain unique entities but are bound together by standardized or proprietary technology that enables data and application portability (e.g., cloud bursting for load-balancing between clouds). A cloud computing environment is service oriented with a focus on statelessness, low coupling, modularity, and semantic interoperability. At the heart of cloud computing is an infrastructure comprising a network of interconnected nodes.
